I really shouldn't be saying this, would hate for this little gem to get any bigger. As for the complaint about community and Senn HS; relations are great with our community. Parking seems to be our biggest issue but that is with any Chicago High School with no student parking. The relationship with Senn HS is fair. I wish CPS would step in to allow RNA student to be on sports teams like football, since the size of our school doesn't accommodate the number of students needed on a team. Maybe we could allow some of their student to be on the sailing team in return. As for other sports, we are doing really well, alongside schools like Von, Red division. AP classes and honors classes are offered to students that do well in a subject, you do not have to be in all honors or AP, unlike other schools. If I could make a change it would be to offer more career training for students not looking to go to a 4 year college. I would also like our own school and campus. We could grow to 1000 students if the the student/teacher/support staff ratio stays the same.

If you are interested in a military style education for your child, there are quite a few options in Chicago that are better like Air Force or Phoenix.

I believe that the things they've taught him set him up to be a human and to take adult responsibilities for his actions. And those demerits taught him that his actions have consequences. We love this school so much that we kept our fingers crossed that our youngest son would be able to lottery into it. It was our first pic for him and also his. I'm glad for this school and glad for the opportunities it will allow both of my guys in the future. Nice small class sizes. Accredited teachers with a need to spread knowledge. The staff, the principal...love them all.

I am aware Brian Tennison is now Supertindent. In…read moreretrospect, former Principal Brian Tennison was the most neglectful staff ever seen at Lane Tech College Prep. I am an adult who is 40 years old. I know right from wrong. Principal Tennison might have shook every Lane students hands while he was in office, he neglected their needs as far as stress goes. There was no relief, no therapist offered whatsoever. Brian Tennison did not care. Plus, he took away all the parents privileges to volunteer at their Prom. I was devastated at that time. Even though, my youngest daughter was unhappy about me not going to her prom. I would have been very happy without dancing and prom dinner. I rather be in the same ballroom with both my daughters' prom instead of dinner and dancing. We survived without it. I do not know who changed the prom volunteer policy. Hence I am very sad at Brian Tennison. Dr. Christopher Dignam was a very very excellent principal. Dr. Dignam allowed parents to participate as prom volunteers. You rock Dr. Christopher Dignam!!!!!! Does anyone have a say about the parents, prom and Dr. Chris Dignam?

Academics were great and they did an amazing job offering different levels of math and reading to meet the students where they are at. I also truly enjoyed the parent community - no parent cliques and attitudes, everybody is welcome to help and participate in whatever capacity they can. The principal is amazing and the kids adore and respect her - she is a true gem! The 8th grade homeroom teacher was also incredible, as is the office staff. It was an all around positive experience and it's a school that lives what they preach. The school itself is clean, well set up with comfortable classrooms, great gym, amazing kitchen and a bowling alley! The pastor is wonderful and the kids get a well rounded education and they leave prepared and ready for the next chapter. Tuition is reasonable and a great value. I highly recommend St. John's!

The security guard, William, is consistently rude and creates problems with students for no valid reason. Pauly Edith is especially unprofessional--she mocks students and frequently disrespects them. This school claims to prioritize mental health, yet when students actually need support, it is rarely provided. Students' feelings are constantly dismissed and pushed aside. Von Steuben needs to do better.

My freshman year was the first time I had witnessed a fellow classmate become sexually abused via a Chicago bus. Yo, what? Sophomore Year: Geometry Stricken. Junior Year: Trigonometry went swell. Senior Year: I met the one. I hope you're safe out there. Sometimes Chicago feels and looks like a grey jungle. Was I an individual or an outcast? This is something I still ponder to this day. It's hard to find love in a city filled with so many souls that are constantly rushing everywhere. Chill. Slow down. Enjoy the little things. Life is finite. Appreciate people. Give respect to earn it. Von taught me these life lessons. Thank you. Good luck to all future generations to come. GO PANTHERS!
